What to do

Check whether you use Modal Web Functions. Check your stack
Paste a package.json, lockfile, Terraform or a list of domains at down.guide/stack to see every provider you depend on.
Confirm your retries, queues and scheduled jobs caught up after the 2m it lasted.
Anything that failed between 2026-10-19 16:48 UTC and 2026-10-19 16:50 UTC may need a replay.

We observed a 2 minute period where 30-40% of web function requests failed. This was due to an infrastructure change that left our proxies unable to handle new requests.

resolvedOct 19, 2026, 4:50 PM UTC
The degradation is resolved and web functions are operating normally. We will be implementing mechanisms to protect against a recurrence of this issue in future.
